About Sam A.

I am currently enrolled on a MA Law Conversion starting in September 2023 and am making the transition from a successful career in law enforcement to advocacy with aspirations to become a barrister.I was a police officer in the Metropolitan Police for 3.5 years. I excelled during my initial training at Hendon where I developed a foundational legal understanding and received the Top Student award. I then spent the majority of my time in the police working on an Emergency Response Policing Team in Peckham. My primary role was to attend 999 and 101 calls and I experienced a great variety of emergency and non-emergency incidents whilst policing in one of the busiest and most challenging areas of London. I also expanded my knowledge by doing a variety of attachments and working in specialist units such as the Violent Crime Taskforce (VCTF). My time in the police honed my communication skills and my ability to work under pressure and exposed me to the criminal justice system. I have a wealth of experience in practical legal contexts including police procedures, building case files, and court procedures. I also have a keen interest in the law, specifically public law which will transfer well to a career at the bar. Prior to joining the police I was a teacher and taught English as a Foreign Language for 5 years. I taught both privately and for language schools in a number of countries including Japan and Russia. I also have an aptitude for languages, having learnt Russian at university and taught myself Japanese, Spanish and Greek.
